What begins as a sunny August afternoon on a bucolic lake
turns into a tragedy when a Jet Ski swerves fatally close to
shore. It's a day Ellen Banks could never have prepared for,
a day no mother should ever have to live through. The moment her son James is killed, Ellen must face the
unimaginable while trying to remain strong for her older
son, Daniel, who witnessed the fateful accident and blames
himself. Ellen's shock and grief soon give way to defiance
as lawyers and policemen who once vowed to support Ellen's
desire for justice succumb to political pressure and back
away. Still, Ellen is determined to see the reckless young
man pay for his crime and to heal her family's deep wounds.
But first she must heal herself. An unforgettable journey of power and emotion, ALL THE
NUMBERS poignantly depicts a woman's reckoning with her own
vulnerability and finding in the wisdom of motherhood the
redemptive grace to begin again.
